Dogs VS.. Sheep.


The destruction of sheep By dogs, al
ways outrageously prevalent has
been exceptionally so this fall, at least
in this section. But what are we 90
ing to do about itp Il seems that we
can do nothing. The sheep raisers of
the State have tried time and again,
but to no purpose, to get some law en-
acted and enforced looking TO an cf-
ftclive protection of sheep against the
rayages of dogs. The fact is. the dog
question seems to be more than the
Legislature can handle.
There are great many people who
own dogs for their imagined useful
ness But as it seems we can not have
sheep and dogs the question arises,
. Which are The more useful, sheep or
dogsP The dog-owncr answers: my
dog is more useful to me than your
sheep are to me" And as there are
ten dog-owncrs TO one sheep-owner,
the dogs have it.
But in addition to those who own
dogs for their imaginary usefulness
there is class of scntimentalists who
are ever ready to defend the dog.
Iboy will write or speak all kinds of
sentimental "balderiash, about the
dogs nobleness. his constancy. affec-
lion and fidelity as something beauti-
full, and even to be cmulatcd by man.
But just call one of these fellows n
dog, OF even little puppy and he
will protest to you in such way as TO
show you he will eagerly admit that
he has been lying about the dog rath-
cr than be mistaken for the subject of
his eulogy. And yet, such people. for
the sake of INDUCING this incon-
sistent and sham sentiment are
willing to pay an increased price
for mutton and clothing, and incur a
fair chance for hydrol h1bia. Truly
man is fearfully and wonderfully
made
Thus it is plainly seen why the Leg
islaturc has not dealt effectively with
The dog question. The dog has become
political factor of no mean import
ance. The successful candidate is as
shy of and as cquivocal concerning
The dog question as he is that of pro-
hibition. No man with political aspira-
tons can afford to be the owner OF
sheep, for such are necessarily com.

ton. So, if candidate expects to be
successful he must first desert the sheer
for the dogs. For these reasons the
Legislature is unable to graphic with
the dog question, the sheep having
one representative where the dog has
ten. How can the sheep interest pros.
